Lost Paradise has revealed its 2026 lineup, with the New Year’s institution returning to Glenworth Valley on Darkinjung Country from 28 December to 1 January. Now entering its twelfth year, the festival continues to lean into its electronic foundations while assembling a bill that balances global club heavyweights with some of Australia’s most respected DJs, producers and live acts.

Leading this year’s lineup is John Summit, whose rise from underground favourite to one of dance music’s biggest names continues with the release of his sophomore album CTRL ESCAPE. He’ll be joined by UK grime pioneer Skepta, who continues to blur the lines between rap, grime and house, alongside Dutch techno powerhouse KI/KI, Welsh electronic duo Overmono, house music veteran Armand Van Helden, modern jungle innovator Nia Archives, Scottish selector Ewan McVicar, Australia’s Sam Alfred, Rossi. and the ever-unpredictable Partiboi69.

The depth of the lineup is where Lost Paradise continues to distinguish itself. Chaos In The CBD bring their jazz-infused deep house, while DJ Seinfeld (Live), Jayda G, Job Jobse, Loods, Pretty Girl (Live), Salute, Tommy Holohan, Soul Mass Transit System, Flava D, Hamdi, Luuk van Dijk, Mella Dee and Memphis LK ensure the electronic programme stretches across house, garage, techno, jungle and drum & bass.

Australian artists remain at the heart of the festival. The Jungle Giants return with their dance-oriented indie sound, while Arnhem Land’s Drifting Clouds continue their ascent following a breakthrough year that has introduced audiences to their unique fusion of synth-pop, funk and ancient Songlines. Elsewhere, dameeeela, Riordan, Willo, Caleb Jackson, DART, Harry Hayes, Kirollus, Kyle Starkey, Saint Ludo, Stacie Fields, Supergloss and many more round out a programme that reflects the breadth of Australia’s electronic underground.

Since launching more than a decade ago, Lost Paradise has become one of the few remaining large-scale camping festivals in New South Wales, pairing music with wellness, art and sustainability against the backdrop of Glenworth Valley. That identity remains intact in 2026, with a lineup that favours artists shaping contemporary club culture rather than simply revisiting familiar names.

With five days of music spread across multiple stages and one of the country’s strongest electronic lineups to close out the year, Lost Paradise once again looks set to provide a fitting farewell to 2026.
